1
00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 1: Jeff Morris, did you don't Jack Morris? Did you Jack Warris?

2
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:12,719
Speaker 1: Drive Time right and sex stextra Jo Actually, Jeff Warris,

3
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:17,640
Speaker 1: Drive Time starts right now. It's basically it's just gonna

4
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 1: be then result you get it done. It you don't

5
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:22,720
Speaker 1: get it done. If it's not good enough for the

6
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: people who work for then hey, they're gonna let you go.

7
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 1: I mean, we all know that nothing to hold your

8
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 1: head down about. It's nothing to feel bad about. You know,

9
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 1: It's like anything else. And I walk around here, I'm

10
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: it's embarrassing, it's frustrating, you know, But at the end

11
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 1: of the day, there's got to be leadership somewhere. You know,

12
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 1: someone's gotta step up, someone's got to go and lead.

13
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: Like I said, I love this place. I love Jacksonville.

14
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: It's my home. I plan on being here for a while,

15
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,520
Speaker 1: meaning in the city. And uh, I'm never gonna drop

16
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 1: my head. I'm I'm working my butt off to do

17
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 1: the best job I can. And I think as long

18
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 1: as you can do that and you don't sulky excuses

19
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: or anything, you know, I looked myself in the mirror

20
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:05,680
Speaker 1: and know that I did everything I can and and

21
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 1: that you know what, that's fine. Um, I'll always be

22
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,960
Speaker 1: disappointed with the results, but that's just the way it is.

23
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 1: I I love that Doug took that question, and the

24
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: question was pointed, are are you going to be back

25
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: next year? Because when you hit a losing street, especially

26
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,119
Speaker 1: with the expectations that a team has, that's a fair question.

27
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: And in this league, every player knows that's what it's about.

28
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,199
Speaker 1: We put it at the top of the show today.

29
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: It's kind of theater of the absurd there, because there

30
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 1: is no way any of us thought we would hear

31
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 1: anything even remotely close to that kind of a question

32
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: or answer in a Doug Morone press conference this year.

33
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: We thought maybe we'd be talking about you gonna set

34
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: some starters here in the next couple of weeks. And

35
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: I had someone say to me this morning, did he

36
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: really get a question about his job? And I said, well,

37
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 1: it's not a surprise to heet them the first time

38
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: this has happened, if you've been around this game. And

39
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 1: and Nate Hackett said that he was surprised on Monday,

40
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: and I don't doubt that he was surprised. However, he

41
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: under hand to the business all of them do. Yesterday

42
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: Blake Bortles understood the questions that were coming and just

43
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: I love the way he handled it. And we'll have

44
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: it for you in a couple of minutes, which is

45
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 1: I didn't play well enough. Bottom line, put it on himself,

46
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 1: just like Doug isn't putting on himself the entire week.

47
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 1: It's it's it's about the bottom line. It's what you

48
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: get done, and they weren't getting it done. They've got

49
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,679
Speaker 1: to do something. So good morning, Welcome to Jack's Drive Time,

50
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 1: brought to you by the Fields Auto Group. I want

00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: in particular pors Sean Theater of the Absurd. You may

53
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: have heard that the Rolling Stones are coming for a

54
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 1: huge concert in April. Huge concert, and I'm guessing you're

55
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,359
Speaker 1: gonna be somewhere. Are you jumping off the light tower

56
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 1: for the Stones? Or is Mick jumping off the lights?

57
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 1: How jumping with you? Maybe maybe hold it all out there. Uh,

58
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,480

00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: because it's the Rolling Stones? They haven't played in Jacksonville

62
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 1: in thirty years. I saw them thirty years ago when

63
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 1: I was just out a high school and head for college.

64
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,680

Speaker 1: Okay back to football where highly distracted. Yeah, well and

99
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 1: right now this team needs it, to be honest with you.

100
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: The team may not, but people who work around the

101
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: team absolutely. I had again someone called me this morning.

102
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,599
Speaker 1: We were chatting about this and how difficult is it. Oh,

103
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 1: it's tough. But every morning here on drive time, we

104
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: endeavor to tell the story in a complete, truthful manner

105
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:37,279
Speaker 1: and we will do so every single week, win or lose.

106
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 1: So let's start with big things. Yes, big thing one

107
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 1: is the man. There are two man's this week, two man's,

108
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: two men. Yeah, you're right, though, the man and the man. Right,

109
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 1: there are two of the man. Right, we're talking about

110
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: the man in Jacksonville for breaks to the man's who

111
00:05:55,600 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: needs it in journalism grammar. Anyhow, the man in jackson

112
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: this week is Cody Kessler himself. We saw yesterday and

113
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 1: speaking the locker room for the first time, we saw

114
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: him on the practice s Fiel getting first team reps

115
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,840
Speaker 1: for the first time. We hear from him about what

116
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 1: he's feeling this week. A lot of pressure on his shoulders. Yeah,

117
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: I mean as a competitor, obviously, you know, excited and

118
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,359
Speaker 1: and you know it's tough to get opportunities in this

119
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,920
Speaker 1: league and to have one. Um, you know, obviously I'm

120
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 1: very excited and um, but yeah, I mean we've had

121
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 1: a close quarterback rooms obviously. When when things happen like that,

122
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: it's part of the business. But at the same time

123
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,599
Speaker 1: it's a little rough. But yeah, I mean just just

124
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,360
Speaker 1: moving forward. I'm excited to it is. It's a big

125
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 1: opportunity for me this week and um, hopefully get the

126
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: guy's rally around me and kind of turn this thing around.

127
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: So um, yeah, I'm really look forward to it, you know. So, um,

128
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,000
Speaker 1: the fantasy here if you're a Jaguars fan is that

129
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: Cody Kessler gets his chance. Now, the comparison is going

130
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 1: to sound preposterous to you, um, but not too long ago,

131
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 1: there was a former second round pick of the San

132
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 1: Diego Chargers who was a starter for them, but they

133
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 1: didn't think he was it enough, and so they drafted

134
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers and Drew Brees went somewhere and built a career.

135
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: Now that's a Hall of Fame career. This year, it

136
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: looks like the good quite his second second chance of

137
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl has got one seventy thousand passing yards.

138
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to suggest that Cody Kessler is the

139
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: next Drew Brees, but what if Cody Kessler right plays well.

140
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 1: I don't care, Yeah I do care, But but if

141
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 1: if he plays well, that is a win for this

142
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,239
Speaker 1: team because it means they can go into next season

143
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: knowing they've got a guy they can count on while

144
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 1: a rookie, because I fully expect they're drafting someone a

145
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 1: rookie can come along at at a measured pace. They

146
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:43,239
Speaker 1: don't have to rush them in. Right, Patrick Mahomes didn't

147
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 1: play as a rookie. Baker Mayfield is playing as a rookie.

148
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: He goes to it. But if you have a guy

149
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 1: with the defense that you've got and the running game

150
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: that you've got, you can compete much quicker than if

151
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 1: you have to take a big step back with a

152
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 1: rookie quarterback, right and just hope that they can catch up.

153
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 1: So fantasy here is is that the guy comes in

154
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: and plays well, that he's a guy who was waiting

155
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 1: for his turn. And again that's where Breeze was just

156
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 1: waiting for return as he hit his free agency years

157
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 1: back in the mid two thousands and he became a star. Well,

158
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: we don't even star, but if you get a good

159
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: performance by him, that would be big. And the reason

160
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 1: that I chose Drew Brees was because they're about the

161
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: same size, right, I mean, you look at quarterbacks these days,

162
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: you'll give a big guy Josh Allen. You think, WHOA,

163
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 1: that's a quarterback. Quite the difference this guy might be too. Yeah,

164
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: and you see Cody and Blake sit next to each

165
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: other and you see the difference in their size. But

166
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: what I'm most impressed about with Cody the entire season

167
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,559
Speaker 1: has been his confidence. Every single week, He's prepared like

168
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 1: a starter. He said it all season long. We talked

169
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,560
Speaker 1: to him back in August in the preseason saying that

170
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 1: he wanted a chance here and that he had a

171
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: great relationship with Blake, but he was here to play quarterback.

172
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 1: And he has been confident this entire year that he

173
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: wanted a chance. And again, maybe the opportunity is all

174
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 1: he needs to show that he is capable of being

175
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: a starter in this league. We'll find out for the

176
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 1: Jaguars that what they need is a guy who can

177
00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 1: play well at the end of the season and pull

178
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: this team out of the losing streak. Um. We mentioned

179
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: that Blake talked in the locker room yesterday. Hey, that's big.

180
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 1: By the way, he didn't have to come out and

181
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: talk um. He could have easily just said, no, I'm

182
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: not the starter. I'm not required by the league to

183
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: talk anymore, forget it. So just an appreciation for who

184
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 1: he's been with the media. And there's a lot of

185
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: people who cares, you know, he stinks, get rid of him. Um.

186
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 1: But if you went and talk to all the members

187
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 1: of the media down there when he leaves every week,

188
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 1: they all they're grateful that he was here because he

189
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 1: stands there and answers the questions. He's candid as can be.

190
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 1: And yesterday, well let's run the sound bite and you'll

191
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 1: see for yourself what we're talking about. Yeah, he's awesome.

192
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: UM was with him, you know obviously all last year

193
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 1: and this year. UM. Super intelligent guys. Smart. Uh kind

194
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 1: of has a different perspective of things, you know, I

195
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: think being in Canada and playing you know, kind of

196
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 1: a different style of football as well as you know,

197
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: everything he's done, um in the NFL as a player

198
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: and you know, as a coach here in America. So

199
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 1: I think it's cool that he's got you know, the

200
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,559
Speaker 1: background of the CFL and some different and so it's

201
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: exciting to see um, you know, watching him working him

202
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 1: put together to plan with the rest of the coaches.

203
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: UM and obviously installed it for the first time. The

204
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: first time any of us had heard him, you know,

205
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,199
Speaker 1: be the guy up in the front and presenting, and

206
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 1: you know, he did an unbelievable job today, so it'll

207
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: be uh. I think it's exciting to watch him. So

208
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 1: he's talking about the new play caller, Scott Milanovitch, who

209
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 1: has been his quarterbacks coach since the start of Seen.

210
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:23,680
Speaker 1: But you could easily imagine another high profile player who

211
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 1: had been benched standing there, maybe with his hoodie up. Yeah.

212
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,199
Speaker 1: Uh huh oh. It would not have gone like that. No, no, no,

213
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,839
Speaker 1: it would not have. And there he is offering, as

214
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:38,679
Speaker 1: one man to another, a candid appreciation of who Scott

215
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: Milanovich is and giving him a vote of confidence. You

216
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,240
Speaker 1: just hope that your sons and daughters, if they're ever

217
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:46,719
Speaker 1: facing the kind of adversity that he's faced, that you've

218
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: raised your kids to be able to stand there, look

219
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 1: people in the eye and give an honest answer, and

220
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,960
Speaker 1: to be able to be magnanimous, to be able to

221
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: be uh generous with your words and not think about yourself.

222
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: I thought it was a selfless act for him to

223
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,040
Speaker 1: come in there yesterday and do that, and more people

224
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,679
Speaker 1: should appreciate the man that Blake borders is even if

225
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: you don't think the quarterback is deserving of your respect. Absolutely,

226
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: it was impressive. And it's also we know how close

227
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 1: him and Nathaniel Hackett are as friends as co workers,

228
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 1: offensive corner to quarterback. So for him and then go

229
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 1: and praise Scott Milanovich after Nathaniel Hacket gets let go

230
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 1: on Friday also or Monday, says a lot about him

231
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 1: because they've been so close his entire career. Well, and

232
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 1: so you can't see this like we do. We're on

233
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 1: the sidelines during the game, and to see the two

234
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: guys when they're sitting there when things aren't good and

235
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,839
Speaker 1: they're they're looking into the surface right that they're watching place,

236
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: or when he comes off the field and they are good.

237
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,959
Speaker 1: The way that those two men built a relationship, it's

238
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 1: the kind of relationship of friendship that will go beyond football. Uh.

239
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,320
Speaker 1: And again for Blake to stand there and we can't

240
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,360
Speaker 1: show you his whole press conference, you can go see

241
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: that on Jaguars dot com um and have again kind

242
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 1: things to say and praise and support for his friend

243
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 1: who was fired. Um. Again, it was a selfless gesture

244
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:01,960
Speaker 1: to come and talk to the media. No excuses about

245
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 1: his performance either, which I thought was huge. So here

246
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 1: comes Kessler and people are excited about that. They've called

247
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 1: for that. You've got it now. Um, and I said

248
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:11,959
Speaker 1: on Monday, be careful what you wish for, because you're

249
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,200
Speaker 1: gonna put him out there now behind a backup offensive

250
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 1: line and a beat up offensive line because the two

251
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 1: starters who are still there, Ken and Jeremy, are not healthy.

252
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:21,959
Speaker 1: They've been on the injury report most of the year.

253
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: You don't have the tight end, you don't have the

254
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: star running back. But good for Cody to get his chance.

255
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:30,840
Speaker 1: And as he said yesterday, opportunity tough in this league.

256
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 1: It's really difficult in this league. Here it is, here's

257
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 1: his opportunity to show this league that he belongs as

258
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,200
Speaker 1: a starting quarterback. Um, good luck to him. It's not

259
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 1: gonna be easy with all those weapons missing. But oh,

260
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 1: it's not a great opportunity. But he gets his chance,

261
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 1: and he does have a good arm. Deedie Westbrook stood

262
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 1: and said, the kid has a cannon for an arm.

263
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: All right, let's see it. Looking forward to it. All right, now,

264
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 1: let's go to them. A man in Indianapolis, the Indianapolis

265
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,599
Speaker 1: Colts Andrew Luck unique and gok Way discusses what is

266
00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 1: gonna be like trying to get to him on Sunday.

267
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 1: It's got to be effective and take events all your rushes,

268
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,959
Speaker 1: you know, being a defensive end in this league, that's

269
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,439
Speaker 1: what you gotta do. Is it more about hands up

270
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 1: when the guy gets rid of the ball so quickly,

271
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:10,760
Speaker 1: being a man in front of you, you know what

272
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,960
Speaker 1: I mean? Of course short those and things of that nature,

273
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 1: But you wanted to beat the man in front of

274
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: you and try to affect the quarterback as much as possible.

275
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,560
Speaker 1: So I'm looking for the numbers here, um, but they

276
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: don't tell the whole story on just how good Andrew

277
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 1: Luck has been. He has thrown three or more touchdown

278
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 1: passes in seven straight games, they've won five in a row. Um.

279
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:37,239
Speaker 1: Here's his his stat line completion thirty two touchdowns, eleven interceptions.

280
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 1: He's been sacked once in the last seven games. That

281
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 1: was last week. Is passer rating one or two point seven? Look,

282
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,079
Speaker 1: he was the first overall picking the draft in two

283
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:48,079
Speaker 1: thousand and twelve. He was great before he got hurt.

284
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,960
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure. I don't think. I don't think people

285
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 1: in indeed knew what they were getting, and yet the

286
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 1: offensive line that they have built up there has given

287
00:13:56,720 --> 00:14:00,079
Speaker 1: him time to throw. And you see a play that

288
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 1: Calais Campbell said had genius, had football genius in him yesterday.

289
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 1: Yeah he is. And we talked about what the Jaguars,

290
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: while moving forward, want to get. They want to get

291
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 1: someone like that who they don't have a ton of

292
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: star offensive power on their side of the ball. But

293
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 1: yet Andrew Luck. I remember when we played them three

294
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 1: weeks ago, and he threw all those tight ends and

295
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,520
Speaker 1: just cut up the Jaguars defense. He made everyone on

296
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: offense look like a star. Well, and last year Jalen

297
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: didn't have much trouble with t Y Hilton because Andrew

298
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 1: Luck wasn't out there. And Jalen did a good job

299
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,120
Speaker 1: on t Y Hilton in the second half last week.

300
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 1: But he got free on that thirty two yard or

301
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 1: Luck does that he currently he creates those opportunities. Do

302
00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 1: you know how the Colts have had this dynasty of

303
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: quarterbacks and and this is something that you just have

304
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: to appreciate. They were the worst team in the league.

305
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 1: They got the number one draft choice and Peyton Manning

306
00:14:51,160 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: was the prize right now talk about luck. In two

307
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 1: thousand and eleven, they were the worst team in football.

308
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 1: Manning was on the sideline with the neck injury. His

309
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 1: time there was over the prize Andrew Luck. They did

310
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:04,720
Speaker 1: the whole suck for Luck thing that really have to

311
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: suck at the right time. UM. I don't know whether

312
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,640
Speaker 1: this is the right time to just appreciate the fact that, UM, well,

313
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: there's going to be a benefit to losing UM. No

314
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 1: one wants to lose that. The guys in the locker

315
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: room hope they don't keep losing UM. But there will

316
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 1: be some quarterbacks. There may not be and Andrew Luck,

317
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 1: maybe justin Herbert's that guy. Maybe Daniel Jones, a duke

318
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 1: rises or Will Greer at West Virginia kind of like

319
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz did a few years ago. Maybe there's a

320
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 1: guy sitting right there. There will be some names, and

321
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 1: we can talk about that in the spring. But the

322
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: Colts got lucky in that they sucked when they need

323
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,160
Speaker 1: when you needed to suck. And Andrew Luck is back

324
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 1: and they're back, and their defense, and I've told you

325
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: their defense is there's just not a lot of talent

326
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 1: on that side of the ball. Two players that stand out,

327
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: Darius Leonard, the rookie from South Carolina State, and Mali

328
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 1: Cooker their top pick from Ohio State. But when you

329
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 1: got a quarterback putting up touchdown pass after touchdown pass,

330
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,200
Speaker 1: you don't have to be great, you just have to

331
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 1: be good. Yeah, the Colts defense gave up over four

332
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 1: yards the Jib's offense and still won the game. And

333
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 1: your lucky. He is the man and his name has

334
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 1: lit off people's radar. It's back in a really big way.

335
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: We were just watching Good Morning Football before the show

336
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: and they were talking about him being the m v

337
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 1: P of this season. Well, if the Colts make the playoffs,

338
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: no doubt in my mind he's a guy because last

339
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: year they were embarrassment, right, they were awful, and now

340
00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 1: they're not. And that's what a great quarterback does. Let's

341
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 1: hear what Klais Campbell has to say about the man.

342
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: He's such a talented quarterback when it comes don like

343
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: knowing when he has time and when he can hold

344
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:38,920
Speaker 1: the ball and when he needs to get rid of it,

345
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,720
Speaker 1: and he gets rid of it so like the majority

346
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 1: of the time. So then when he does actually an

347
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: oppoling it, it's like, oh, man, you just so the

348
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 1: kids just to keep rushing and they keep just trying

349
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 1: to win. And when he actually does hold it, that's

350
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 1: when you come home. Yeah, that's when you come come home.

351
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 1: It'll be tough if they don't have Jalen on Sunday.

352
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 1: He's out a knee, and Doug said yesterday that there's

353
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,879
Speaker 1: something wrong there. It's it's not just a little sore nous.

354
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,399
Speaker 1: Uh Den did elaborate obviously, But you got two games

355
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 1: coming up in eight days, Jaguars playing next Thursday night Nashville,

356
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:13,719
Speaker 1: So don't know whether we'll see him this week or not.

357
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,120
Speaker 1: But when you don't have Jalen Ramsey, even as poorly

358
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 1: as he played in the first half, well, I think

359
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,320
Speaker 1: I said yesterday I anticipated him coming out and having

360
00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 1: a redemption game, that we would see it and you

361
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 1: might still. I mean, Jalen has has not practiced during

362
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 1: the week and still played. He's that kind of a guy.

363
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,360
Speaker 1: He's one of the few guys in this game who

364
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 1: can have a week of practice and not and not

365
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 1: miss a game. I'm sorry, not practice and play however

366
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 1: you want to say that. So all right, moving right along,

367
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the men. The Jags defensive

368
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 1: line against that huge Colts offensive line that has been

369
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,800
Speaker 1: so successful this season. We just said that Angela has

370
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,000
Speaker 1: only been sacked once. Quentin Nelson, we saw him against

371
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 1: the Jags. He was unreal. Let's see what Klais Campbell

372
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,919
Speaker 1: has to say about that offensive line. I think that

373
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: it really starts with them being more physical in the

374
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:01,960
Speaker 1: run game. And then when you respect that, you know,

375
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:03,919
Speaker 1: then it just opens up to play action and the

376
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 1: ability to uh do drive back and all falls into it.

377
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:09,840
Speaker 1: And but I'm looking forward to the chance. And I mean,

378
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 1: there are a great officive line, you know, but I'm

379
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,680
Speaker 1: looking forward and trying to just wreck havoc in there.

380
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: Hard to do, you know, from the very early going

381
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:23,440
Speaker 1: in that game last month, you were I was dazzled

382
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 1: by the movement in the offensive line. What Nelson looks like,

383
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:28,640
Speaker 1: John Hannah, he looks like an all timer, and he's

384
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 1: just a rookie. In fact, I've heard his name mentioned

385
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: his offensive Rookie of the Year. And if Andrew luck

386
00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 1: is a m VP candidate, well then there's no doubt

387
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,199
Speaker 1: in my mind. And Nelson, but the way they were

388
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 1: getting out and pulling and getting in front of screens

389
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 1: and draws. Uh. They are talented as all get out,

390
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,000
Speaker 1: and so this defensive line really has their hands full.

391
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,159
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm sure they had an appreciation for

392
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 1: how much better they were playing, but I don't know

393
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 1: if they appreciated just how athletic they were until they

394
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 1: got on the field at Lucas Oil Stadium. I expect

395
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: him play much better, although I mean talk about strength

396
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 1: on strength, Yeah, I mean the Jaguars defensive line is

397
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 1: its strength and the Colts offensive line is its strength.

398
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 1: A year ago, at this time, uh, two years ago,

399
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: at this time, Andrew Luck had been sacked something like

400
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,199
Speaker 1: forty times. We weren't talking about it then, and only

401
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: eleven and most of those were in the first starting

402
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 1: six games of the year when they began one in five.

403
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: They are killing it right now. So this is the

404
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,679
Speaker 1: matchup on Sunday. The Jags defensive line can create some

405
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: havoc in the middle, They've got a good chance to win.

406
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 1: If they don't. Andrew Luck stands in the pocket watch

407
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 1: even if Jalen plays, he isn't. That's a problem. Although

408
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,640
Speaker 1: they will have a j boy A back and that'll

409
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 1: be a good thing. That'll help he's playing at a

410
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: high level. Okay, well that'll do it for a big

411
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 1: thing one, two and three. And as we take this break,

Speaker 1: reporter and host for Indianapolis Colts dot com. We spoke

451
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 1: to her three weeks ago when the Colts were rolling,

452
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 1: and they are still rolling, Caroline, five game winning streak. Yeah,

453
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 1: it has been a good past couple of weeks for

454
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Cold Awesome. The offensive line is what we

455
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: keep talking about here, Carolyn. When did you see that

456
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 1: this line was going to gel and play consistently together.

457
00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,200
Speaker 1: Did you see it in the preseason games or did

458
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 1: not come till they started winning? You know, it really,

459
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,679
Speaker 1: as cliche as it sounds, it really didn't start in

460
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:14,120
Speaker 1: training camp because you know, at training camp you live

461
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,359
Speaker 1: and you breathe practice um, and we would get to

462
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 1: the practice field earlier than the players would, but we

463
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 1: never seemed to be able to beat the offensive line there. Um.

464
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: You know, they were there a good thirty forty five

465
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 1: minutes before team would be and they were just stretching,

466
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 1: going through drills, kind of learning the different um warm up. Uh,

467
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 1: you know, systems that their coach wanted them to do.

468
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: Dave de Giuliano and that's one thing that he said,

469
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: now that they are starting to gell, He's like, this

470
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 1: didn't happen overnight, you know, this is something that we

471
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: started back in training camp to now. But of course

472
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:51,240
Speaker 1: when they started to get really the Jet game, um,

473
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: is when you kind of started to notice, like, wait

474
00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 1: a minute, they're they're not just jelling, They're really starting

475
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,920
Speaker 1: to click and you're seeing that spill over in the

476
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 1: run game starting to get going, Andrew Luck having more

477
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 1: time in the pocket. Um. It was really that New

478
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: England and Jets game in week five and six when

479
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: you really started to see that all of those hours

480
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:13,639
Speaker 1: from training camp started to started to work for that group.

481
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 1: So I'm curious what kind of guy Quintin Nelson is

482
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 1: because he plays the game like he kicked his dog

483
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 1: when he left the house in the morning and choose

484
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,679
Speaker 1: some glass and swallowed some nails. I mean, he plays

485
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,680
Speaker 1: like an old school, nasty kind of guy. Um. Is

486
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 1: he the kind of guy in the locker room that

487
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,679
Speaker 1: you kind of just steer clear of. Absolutely not he is.

488
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 1: He is actually a player that you know as as

489
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 1: a female who has never played the game, um of football.

490
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 1: But I've been around in my whole life. I know

491
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: a lot of the terminology. UM. And so when you

492
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,640
Speaker 1: ask a player, you know they're gonna say, oh, overstepped

493
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,399
Speaker 1: my pass set. Well, I you know, I always go

494
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 1: to Quintin and I'm like, what did you mean by that? Um?

495
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:54,160
Speaker 1: And he's always always takes the time to explain it. Um.

496
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,640
Speaker 1: He'll even kind of step back and show me, like, well,

497
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,399
Speaker 1: this is what I mean, you know, instead of just

498
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 1: telling me. He is dreamly kind and it you know,

499
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 1: takes the time out to answer questions and is always available. Um.

500
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 1: But he's always just very even kill. And I will

501
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 1: say in the locker room, he doesn't get too hyped up.

502
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 1: He doesn't, you know, he never looks looks any different.

503
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:17,120
Speaker 1: He's just always even killed Quintin Nelson. Uh. And then

504
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 1: he puts on that helmet and and you're right, you

505
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 1: do see a different side of Oh yeah. Hey, I've

506
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 1: done this for twenty five years and I have never

507
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 1: ever talked about a guard as an offensive Rookie of

508
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,720
Speaker 1: the Year candidate. But it's clear with his mobility, with

509
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:36,320
Speaker 1: his toughness, with his intellect, with his his strength and quickness, uh,

510
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 1: that he is the heartbeat of that offensive line in

511
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 1: his first eleven professional games, and he's fun to watch

512
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 1: when you see him out there, when you see fifty six,

513
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 1: you think he's gonna do something. And you know what, Caroline,

514
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 1: to make the comparison when Tony Basselli was here as

515
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 1: the best left tackle in football before your time, but

516
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 1: but you know that the name. Yeah, they used to

517
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 1: bring a camera on Monday Night football and they would

518
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:05,199
Speaker 1: have an extra camera just for Tony Biselli's matchups with

519
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 1: some of the best pass rushers in the game. I

520
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,840
Speaker 1: don't see it as being a stretch that next year

521
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,399
Speaker 1: you will see crews come in and bring a camera

522
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,359
Speaker 1: just to put on the middle of the offensive line

523
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 1: so that they can show people what a dominant player

524
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 1: he is. It's been fun to watch that whole offensive

525
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: line that they love to pull. They love the run

526
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 1: players where they can show off their strength a little

527
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: bit and get those blots, you know, five ten yards

528
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 1: sometimes fifteen yards down the field, which is just something

529
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 1: that it's exciting to see. It's it's the second level

530
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 1: of the game where you can kind of just watch

531
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 1: the offensive line and see what they're gonna do. Carolina

532
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 1: tight ends were a huge problem for the Jags three

533
00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 1: weeks ago, Jack Doyle eric Ebron, is that something you've

534
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 1: seen all season? Them cutting up defenses with every game

535
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 1: they play. Yeah, this was the point of emphasis when

536
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 1: Frank Click and Nick Sirianni took over this offense was

537
00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 1: we want to use the tight ends as pass catchers

538
00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 1: as much as we can to get that this match

539
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,919
Speaker 1: um against defenses. And we've seen that all year so

540
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 1: far of Eric Ebron. He may not get a ton

541
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: of snaps, but when he's in the game, he's very

542
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 1: very effective. Obviously he's up there not just with tight

543
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 1: ends but as all pass catchers for touchdown passes on

544
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,920
Speaker 1: the season. And then Jack Doyle was unfortunately was moved

545
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 1: to i R this week, a big blow to the

546
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 1: Colts offense. But he was that steady player, steady Eddie,

547
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:26,719
Speaker 1: one of Andrew Like's favorite targets. So it was one

548
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:28,919
Speaker 1: of those where you knew the potential was there. But

549
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 1: Eric Ebron coming in was this unknown player to Colts

550
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,679
Speaker 1: fans and what he had done in Detroit, people just

551
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:36,919
Speaker 1: had some question marks. But we all know now the

552
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 1: type of player that Eric Ebron is um and he's

553
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 1: now going to be asked with Jack Doyle on I

554
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 1: R too to maybe step up a little bit. See

555
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 1: will will we see his role change? We don't know, um,

556
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 1: but it will certainly be a different dynamic knowing that

557
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 1: Jack Doyle not only is he hurt, but he's not

558
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,679
Speaker 1: going to be returning. Tell us about Frank Reich, we

559
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,680
Speaker 1: know him from his days in Philadelphia, and obviously he

560
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 1: was the cold second cho man. What a choice right

561
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 1: to have all that go down in the spring with

562
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 1: Josh McDaniels and and that's a nightmare for a football

563
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:11,879
Speaker 1: team to have to kind of pull yourself back and

564
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:15,400
Speaker 1: dust yourself off. They landed with the guy that probably

565
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 1: should have been their first choice. Huh Yeah, Coach Reich

566
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 1: was the right choice. Uh that That's kind of what

567
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 1: it comes down to is he's been nothing but amazing

568
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,480
Speaker 1: for this organization. As soon as he came into the building.

569
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 1: I think an interesting part was, you know, Frank Reich

570
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 1: said he wasn't looking while the the Eagles were on

571
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 1: their you know, run for the Super Bowl. He wasn't looking,

572
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 1: and so when the time was right, he became the choice. Um.

573
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 1: And ever since he came in, you know, everyone's been

574
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 1: very excited about about what him, uh, Nick Sirianni and

575
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck we're gonna be able to do with this offense.

576
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 1: We're starting to see that take off. And I asked him,

577
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,960
Speaker 1: you know, what's the difference between this team now and

578
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 1: the team that we watched start one and five on

579
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 1: the season, And he said, you know, it's just the

580
00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 1: belief that we were new here and we had them,

581
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 1: you know, systems and some thoughts and some ideas that

582
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 1: we had to get everyone to a hundred percent buy into,

583
00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,360
Speaker 1: and they're really starting to believe those things. And so

584
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,320
Speaker 1: he believes that's the biggest reason why you're seeing this

585
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 1: young team all of a sudden, you know, be able

586
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 1: to rip off five wins. Caroline, when we talked a

587
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,800
Speaker 1: few weeks ago before the Jaguars and Colts game, you said,

588
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 1: this is the statement game for the Colts to really

589
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 1: show America that they're here for real. Is playoffs on

590
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 1: everyone's mind now in Indianapolis with this five game winning streak, Oh,

591
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 1: come on, you know that that's that's the only thing

592
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:36,440
Speaker 1: anyone ever thinks about, is you get any type of win. Um, Absolutely,

593
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 1: the playoffs or what people thinking about, what the team

594
00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 1: is thinking. But I think what's been really interesting. And

595
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 1: you know, we hear the coaching cliches, and you know,

596
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 1: you'll hear the players kind of echo what the coaches

597
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,680
Speaker 1: will say, and it's one week and at a time.

598
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: But I felt it's kind of just joked around with

599
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,400
Speaker 1: the players. Now afterwards, I'm like, let me guess, is

600
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 1: it just to finish this week? Want to know? And

601
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 1: they laugh and they're like, I know you want more,

602
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,239
Speaker 1: but that really is also we talk about, is we

603
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 1: need to finish this week? I want to know, and

604
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 1: then the next week it's going to be the same thing.

605
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 1: And that's been their focus. And I think they've gotten

606
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 1: to the point, like Frank Craig said, where they believe

607
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 1: that that is genuinely the best way to be able

608
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:16,479
Speaker 1: to get to the playoffs and get to where they

609
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 1: want to be. But yeah, you better believe that this team.

610
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,240
Speaker 1: Every player in the NFL wants to make sure that

611
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,160
Speaker 1: that their team gets back in the playoffs. Well, you know,

612
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,800
Speaker 1: we talked to Andrew Walker, your your co worker up

613
00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 1: there back in August, and we were just talking in generality,

614
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 1: is getting a preview of the team, and I asked him,

615
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: I said, with Andrew Luck coming back and some confidence

616
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,240
Speaker 1: in him. Are you thinking about the playoffs this year?

617
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 1: And he said no, he said, we can't at this

618
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,960
Speaker 1: point because they're the way that last season went. You know,

619
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 1: there's some young talent were excited. The defense needs work,

620
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 1: so to be where you are has got to be

621
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 1: an immense amount of fun. And and do you sense

622
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 1: that on the part of the players, Even though they

623
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 1: won't give you more caroline, you have to see it

624
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 1: in their eyes. They've got to be more willing to

625
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 1: stand there and talk, more friendly in that sense. It's

626
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 1: a perfect timing for it, absolutely. And I think two

627
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 1: with this team, they're just so young. A lot of

628
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 1: what we saw at the beginning of the year and

629
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: training camp was was just a little bit of wide eyed,

630
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, like I'm in the NFL, and and

631
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 1: it was a little bit on the coaching side, you know,

632
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 1: they talked about just managing expectations and managing their excitement

633
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 1: to where now it's like, oh, this is what it's like,

634
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 1: and it's it's you know, the game is starting to

635
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 1: slow down for these players and when they don't feel

636
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: quite as overwhelmed and they get to feel comfortable. Of course,

637
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 1: there's more excitement in the locker room. I love talking

638
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 1: to our linebackers because right now they're in a very

639
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 1: heated and public uh competition to who has the better

640
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 1: turnover and when when that is what you're talking about

641
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 1: in the locker room, not just that we want a turnover,

642
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:50,720
Speaker 1: but our defense has been able to turn the ball

643
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,960
Speaker 1: over and every single game this season, so they're starting

644
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 1: to talk about no, no no, mine was better. No no, no, no,

645
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 1: it was mine, like mine was better. When those are

646
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 1: the types of discussions that you're hearing in the locker room,

647
00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 1: and you know, the conversations between players. Yes, you know,

648
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: it is very different and maybe not what you expected

649
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the season when when there were

650
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 1: some managing of expectations. But now it's hey, um, you're

651
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 1: actually right at the door knocking on the playoffs, so

652
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:20,400
Speaker 1: let's stay here and continue our way into the playoffs.

653
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 1: So we've gotten to just about the end of this

654
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 1: conversation and we have not asked you about Andrew Luck

655
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 1: And I think it's interesting, well because because I think

656
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: it's almost self evident, isn't it. He is back? It

657
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 1: is it is you know, it was a conversation that

658
00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:36,040
Speaker 1: no one could avoid. As he was coming back, he

659
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 1: couldn't avoid the conversations. We you know, we couldn't avoid

660
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 1: the questions. Um, But now it is fun to just say,

661
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 1: we don't really have to answer these questions because I've

662
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 1: been watching what he's been doing. I mean, he's doing

663
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 1: everything that an m VP candidate should be doing. Um,

664
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 1: he's you know, he's making plays. I think the play

665
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 1: against Miami where it was third down, he the pocket

666
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,520
Speaker 1: starts to collapse, he steps out, finds Chester Rogers to

667
00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 1: set up that field goal position. I mean, that is

668
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,200
Speaker 1: an m v P play that was the moment in

669
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 1: the in the game that needed to happen, and he

670
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 1: was able to do it. Um, he's done everything. He's

671
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 1: you know, back in training camp when he returned, it

672
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 1: was there are a lot of boxes to check. He's

673
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,080
Speaker 1: checked those boxes. And now he says, it's just fun

674
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 1: to be playing like this again. And and that's all

675
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 1: it is. You know, he's excited to be back, he's

676
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,200
Speaker 1: excited to be playing the way that he is. Um.

677
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: And it's evident when he takes the field that he's

678
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 1: just out there having a really good time. It sure is,

679
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 1: and it's good for the game to have him back

680
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 1: as well. And uh, you know, with the the high

681
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 1: octane offenses that have taken over the NFL, I wouldn't

682
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:37,760
Speaker 1: be surprised if it's not long before he's right there

683
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:42,479
Speaker 1: with those quarterbacks throwing touchdown passes the season. Once again, Caroline,

684
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 1: thanks for your time. We look forward to Senior Sunday.

685
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 1: By the way, it's been cold here all week. It's

686
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 1: been this morning. I think it was probably cold for her.

687
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 1: The first thing. I think what I woked up this morning,

688
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 1: it was around twenty degrees here, which actually I will

689
00:33:55,960 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: say it has been unseasonably warm, but when I say that,

690
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 1: I mean the highs around Okay, well, it's gonna be

691
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,719
Speaker 1: one degrees on Sunday. So that was actually in the

692
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 1: locker room. In the locker room we did have Alwood

693
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,759
Speaker 1: asked Margest how excited he was to be able to

694
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,400
Speaker 1: play in warm weather, and they spent a couple of

695
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:19,319
Speaker 1: minutes just excited about the eighty degree weather that we're

696
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 1: going to get. This it's gonna be. It's gonna be

697
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 1: a nice weekend down here. So travel safely. We'll see

698
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:28,120
Speaker 1: you on Sunday, and we certainly appreciate your time. Thanks

699
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 1: to see you guys. Caroline Can from Indianapolis Colts dot com.

700
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: Um just I thought myself longing for last year because

701
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:40,239
Speaker 1: it seems so excited that is they are where this

702
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 1: team was a year ago. Now they've they've got something

703
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 1: because and we've said it a few times here over

704
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 1: the last few weeks, they've got their quarterbacks. They have

705
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 1: the answer there, and they have salary cap room, and

706
00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 1: they've got young talent. Uh So, as the Jaguars start

707
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 1: retooling in the off season, you must retool to beat

708
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,800
Speaker 1: the Colts. I get the Texans, I get the Titans.

709
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,839
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck is the best quarterback in the division and

710
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:08,959
Speaker 1: will be. I don't care how good Deshaun Watson becomes.

711
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck is a prodigy. He is that good and

712
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,120
Speaker 1: he will They will stay in the conversation for the

713
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,080
Speaker 1: next few years. Because of that salary cap they're not

714
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,200
Speaker 1: going anywhere. I think it's one of the reasons why

715
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:20,840
Speaker 1: as you look at what who you're absolutely keeping. Marcel

716
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 1: Darius needs to be in Jacksonville because you're gonna line

717
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 1: him up against Quentin Nelson. You're gonna mean, You're going

718
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 1: to put strength on strength. You start to look at

719
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 1: matchups and how you get two guys. You're going to

720
00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:37,360
Speaker 1: need big guys on the inside when it comes to

721
00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:39,799
Speaker 1: uh to play in the Indianapolis Colts. All right, we're

722
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 1: due for a break. We will take it now. When

00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:10,120
Speaker 1: Will those pictures better be up on social media for sure.

763
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 1: All right, Um, let's talk about tonight's game before we do.

764
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:16,399
Speaker 1: Who said it? Um, you know they try to get

765
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,719
Speaker 1: good Thursday night matchups and it just the way the

766
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,200
Speaker 1: season plays out sometimes. I'm sure there's not a lot

767
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,520
Speaker 1: of people excited to see the Titans and Jaguars next week,

768
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,440
Speaker 1: you know, Um, we're excited to go play it. But

769
00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:29,960
Speaker 1: you know, it is what it is, Uh, this one tonight.

770
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:33,560
Speaker 1: You have maybe the best team in football right now.

771
00:38:33,880 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 1: And you say that because the Saints beat the Rams.

772
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 1: I think the Rams are right there at the very top.

773
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,520
Speaker 1: You know, the Rams beat the Chiefs and the Saints

774
00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:44,280
Speaker 1: beat the Rams, and um, you certainly have a quarterback

775
00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:48,879
Speaker 1: who's playing at an insane level. Insane. Here's the number

776
00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:51,920
Speaker 1: for you. The New Orleans Saints are averaging thirty seven

777
00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 1: point two points. Again, when you were at your height

778
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:58,280
Speaker 1: with Peyton, did you average thirty seven points a game?

779
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:00,480
Speaker 1: I mean, I know there were some games scored in

780
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 1: the forties, but here's a more impressive number. Ready, they

781
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:12,839
Speaker 1: score on sixty one of their offensive possessions. I mean

782
00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:16,120
Speaker 1: that's as an offensive player. That's intense. That's intense. Now

783
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:19,399
Speaker 1: they get a Cowboys defense which hasn't given up more

784
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:23,600
Speaker 1: than thirty points in more than a season games, and

785
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:26,280
Speaker 1: I think they're holding teams to less than nineteen points

786
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,000
Speaker 1: a game. So it's kind of strength on strength. It

787
00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:30,920
Speaker 1: should be fun to watch from that perspective. Uh, but

788
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:34,600
Speaker 1: let's start with Drew Brees because we're talking earlier. You know,

789
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:38,239
Speaker 1: there's there's a little similarity with the Cody Kesler thing

790
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:41,280
Speaker 1: because he was a second round pick who was drafted

791
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:44,400
Speaker 1: by a team and then discarded, but for a draft

792
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 1: pick kind of like like like Cody was and Breeze,

793
00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 1: you know, bounces around, there's a shoulder injury. People don't

794
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:54,120
Speaker 1: know what he's going to become. And he's got seventy

795
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 1: passing yards. He's a Hall of Famer for sure. He's

796
00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:58,879
Speaker 1: got one Super Bowl, maybe another. He's an m VP

797
00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:05,439
Speaker 1: candidate every year. Uh, and he seems indestructible. Wow, it's

798
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 1: it's a I mean, you can't say enough about a

799
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 1: guy like that. But the thing that I'm most impressed

800
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,600
Speaker 1: about Drew when I look at him is his leadership,

801
00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:16,200
Speaker 1: his servant leadership, and the way he interacts with his teammates. Um.

802
00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:19,919
Speaker 1: To see him doing a pre game speech, to see

803
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,440
Speaker 1: how filed up he gets, and to see the reaction

804
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,000
Speaker 1: from the people that the teammates that he's speaking to.

805
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 1: To me is the most impressive thing that he does.

806
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 1: Because his numbers will speak for themselves, but when you

807
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:31,799
Speaker 1: have that kind of impact on a team where you

808
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:36,200
Speaker 1: talk and everyone listens, that's powerful. So uh. I forget

809
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:38,440
Speaker 1: whether it's ESPN or anython network, but they were in

810
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,880
Speaker 1: the locker room in New Orleans this weekend. They were

811
00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:44,359
Speaker 1: asking players about Drew as m v P and mark

812
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 1: Ingram for one. Uh, the genuine you can see what's

813
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,719
Speaker 1: real in the player's eyes, the love that he has

814
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 1: for he said, we are going all out. He deserves

815
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:54,960
Speaker 1: to be the m v P and every one of

816
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,719
Speaker 1: this offense wants to make every play so that the

817
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,720
Speaker 1: rest of the league sees his greatness. I just stopped

818
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:03,960
Speaker 1: and I thought, I don't know if we've ever had

819
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:08,319
Speaker 1: a player in Jacksonville as universally beloved in the locker

820
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,279
Speaker 1: of There's been some guys who are well like, don't

821
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:13,319
Speaker 1: get me wrong, but we're talking about another level of

822
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 1: admiration and commitment. I'm guessing you saw that with Peyton

823
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 1: Manning at that point in your career. Absolutely, Payton is

824
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:22,759
Speaker 1: one of those kind of guys just special. I mean,

825
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:24,920
Speaker 1: not only are they a talented guy, but when you

826
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,080
Speaker 1: can command that kind of respect, where if I dropped

827
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 1: the past and like, oh my god, I let Peyton

828
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:33,160
Speaker 1: down because I knew what he expected from us, and

829
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,879
Speaker 1: to let him down wasn't a slight on, like, well,

830
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:37,799
Speaker 1: he's gonna be mad at me, but because they were

831
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:39,920
Speaker 1: respecting that admiration for the way he approached the game.

832
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 1: I just think the other thing about Breeze is he's

833
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:44,880
Speaker 1: just if he was walking down the street and people

834
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,920
Speaker 1: who don't follow football didn't know who he was, never

835
00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:53,319
Speaker 1: guess he's a quarterback. He's I'm taller than he you know. Uh,

836
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: he's sturdy, and he's obviously athletic, and he's got the

837
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,839
Speaker 1: intense look in his eye. But you don't see superstar

838
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:02,400
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame NFL, not in the you know, Jim Kelly,

839
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:06,640
Speaker 1: Dan Marino, John Elway, Tom Brady, Peyton, Manning Mold. He

840
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:09,440
Speaker 1: just doesn't. It doesn't fit it. Yeah, yeah, And to me,

841
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:10,960
Speaker 1: that's the one thing that I think about a lot

842
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,239
Speaker 1: with with Peyton. You know, he has his statue. When

843
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,759
Speaker 1: you see him, you know he's a big guy. But

844
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:19,560
Speaker 1: when I talk about honestuming just a down earth cowboy,

845
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:22,239
Speaker 1: boots and jeans with T shirt on, having a beer.

846
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:24,479
Speaker 1: And to me, that's the kind of guy to Drew

847
00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:26,959
Speaker 1: re strike me as just a genuine guy that loves

848
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 1: to be around his teammates. We talked about the difference

849
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:31,080
Speaker 1: in the quarterback we saw last week with Josh Allen,

850
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:34,360
Speaker 1: huge guy, athletic, big Strew Bees is a totally different

851
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 1: body stature. And we can talk about what Michael Thomas

852
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:39,520
Speaker 1: is doing as your receiver. I mean his numbers they

853
00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 1: stand alone. But the guy that that to me, is

854
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:45,600
Speaker 1: the game breaker there is is Camara And because he's

855
00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:47,400
Speaker 1: not just physical and he is, and he's not just

856
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:49,680
Speaker 1: quick and fast but he is. But he kind of

857
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,120
Speaker 1: like a former teammate a year's edger and James has

858
00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:55,480
Speaker 1: that that little unique ability to slide over the top

859
00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:57,319
Speaker 1: of a guy before he goes down and pick up

860
00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:02,319
Speaker 1: three sneaky yards. Um really like him? Yeah? Uh, Coach

861
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,279
Speaker 1: Jim Morrow's say, he's always falling forward. If you can

862
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 1: always fall forward as a running back, you're doing something

863
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:11,080
Speaker 1: positive because at this level you get tackle for loss,

864
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:13,719
Speaker 1: you're putting your offense at disadvantage. And like Edrin had

865
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:16,800
Speaker 1: this unique ability to get like you said, that extra

866
00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:19,920
Speaker 1: two or three sneaky yards, look up on the statue

867
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 1: and it's like, wow, yeah, he's got a hundred fifteen yards.

868
00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:23,759
Speaker 1: Where did it come from? Well, he feel fall for

869
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:25,839
Speaker 1: you back. He can run over you, he can run

870
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 1: by you, but more often than not on third and

871
00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:30,480
Speaker 1: six he was picking up eight when you had when

872
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,719
Speaker 1: you had stopped it before. Right, he's still managing to

873
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,040
Speaker 1: slide over the top of people. So on Thursday nights,

874
00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:38,040
Speaker 1: normally my kids sit down, they turn again, come on, dad,

875
00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:40,080
Speaker 1: let's watch the game. I'm like, yeah, I do that

876
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:42,840
Speaker 1: for a living. I do football all day. I'll go

877
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:44,480
Speaker 1: find something else to do, but tonight I'll sit down

878
00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:47,120
Speaker 1: to watch it. I think Drew Brees is must see TV.

879
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:49,400
Speaker 1: I get that the Cowboys have some stars, but to me,

880
00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 1: this game is all about Breeze. I don't see any

881
00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:53,359
Speaker 1: way that the Cowboys slowly Yeah, I don't. I don't

882
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 1: see it. Then I gotta really get defense down in Dallas.

883
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:57,680
Speaker 1: But I don't know if they produced enough offensively to

884
00:43:57,800 --> 00:43:59,879
Speaker 1: keep up with with Drew Brees. And by the way,

885
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,520
Speaker 1: since you say that, that's really where this team is

886
00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:05,160
Speaker 1: at as they go forward, they've got to find a

887
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: system of quarterback both uh to play with Drew Brees

888
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:13,400
Speaker 1: tomorrow but or today so to speak. But Pat mahomes

889
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:16,839
Speaker 1: and and Jared Goff tomorrow they the future of this league.

890
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 1: You're going to have to score points, have to you

891
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:21,040
Speaker 1: have the special way that's being designed now, and you

892
00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 1: have to have a guy that can throw it a

893
00:44:22,560 --> 00:44:24,319
Speaker 1: little bit. But you still got to have some ring game.

894
00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:25,560
Speaker 1: But if you can throw it just a little bit,

895
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 1: you stay in the chance to win a lot of

896
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 1: football games. The thing has become a passing league over

897
00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,719
Speaker 1: the last fifteen years. But it feels like the afterburners

898
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:37,640
Speaker 1: have been hit have been lit this year with what okay,

899
00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:41,239
Speaker 1: absolutely all right, time for this game? Who I'm going

900
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 1: to win? Say that every week. But I think we've

901
00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:45,719
Speaker 1: had a draw like three or four weeks. But I'm

902
00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:49,879
Speaker 1: still up one. Yeah, and that's that's under protest. There's

903
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:52,400
Speaker 1: an asterisk there. All that matters. I'm up one. You

904
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:55,960
Speaker 1: can't protest. It was weeks ago. No, I'm under protest

905
00:44:56,040 --> 00:45:01,239
Speaker 1: the entire way. Okays have ran out, not not to

906
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 1: me after the Thanksgiving holiday. They were cleared him by

907
00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 1: the host to me. Okay, let's go. Let's start with

908
00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 1: this on Twitter. Do kids still write lines in school

909
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,359
Speaker 1: if they get in trouble. I saw this one. Oh

910
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:20,800
Speaker 1: I know who this is. I got it. He gets

911
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:34,240
Speaker 1: so into this nothing, he's he's convinced. Yeah, he's on offense. Hey,

912
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:39,320

952
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:13,919

Speaker 1: do it any come on, let's do it anyware competitive?

954
00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:21,239

Speaker 1: our worthy players to make this year's NFL Pro Bowl,

958
00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:31,440
Speaker 1: starting with Josh Lambeau, who's played lights out all year,

959
00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:36,399
Speaker 1: who tweeted that. Given praise to Josh Lambeau, I'm three

00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:40,880
Speaker 1: and ow I got all three? Please, you're embarrassing you

961
00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:48,680

Speaker 1: our guy Josh lambeoul love for the Pro Bowl. So

964
00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:00,480
Speaker 1: I have raised the bar. Now there's little one and

965
00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:03,920
Speaker 1: one is zero zero now. But this is a clean slate,

966
00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:05,600
Speaker 1: and I look, I have put on the table what

967
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:08,160

970
00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:18,560
Speaker 1: But you haven't told me because now it appears there's

971
00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:22,200
Speaker 1: a chance that I could win. Yeah, that's a strong change.

972
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:28,640
Speaker 1: Take it or leave it? Oh that not that, Marcus.

973
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,319

1023
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 1: locker room, it was a good one last week. We've

1024
00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:25,839
Speaker 1: had some not so great locker rooms, but last or yesterday,

1025
00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:28,200
Speaker 1: And it's worth pointing out that when you get to

1026
00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:31,600
Speaker 1: this point where the losing is just epic, uh, and

1027
00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:35,120
Speaker 1: you have a coach fired, a quarterback bench, a star

1028
00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:37,480
Speaker 1: players suspended. I mean that's like the trifecta. It has

1029
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:41,239
Speaker 1: been a really bad week, but a lot to talk about. Yeah,

1030
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:43,279
Speaker 1: the locker room wasn't They were not. No, So we

1031
00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:46,080
Speaker 1: asked Klis Campbell the next five weeks, what's the goal,

1032
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:48,839
Speaker 1: what's left for you? And of course Kleias said there's

1033
00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:52,759
Speaker 1: a lot left for him. The biggest thing is just

1034
00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:55,000
Speaker 1: to keep playing ball, you know, I mean, were you

1035
00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:58,120
Speaker 1: brought there and you're playing good. You know, you put

1036
00:52:58,120 --> 00:53:00,160
Speaker 1: a confidence in the front office and put a for

1037
00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 1: this in the city, and you know you can build

1038
00:53:02,600 --> 00:53:05,640
Speaker 1: on something going forward. You know for fixture years. You know,

1039
00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:08,680
Speaker 1: when you don't play good though, just you right there

1040
00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:12,640
Speaker 1: egg rest of the season. And then you know, you know,

1041
00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:17,040
Speaker 1: you expect change. That's what surnounts me that ending you

1042
00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:20,160
Speaker 1: expect change if you go out in lay a egg. Uh.

1043
00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:25,360
Speaker 1: It's it's a great He is a one of a

1044
00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:28,560
Speaker 1: kind player, uh, a guy who can stand there and

1045
00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:31,959
Speaker 1: explain the game when it's great, when it's not good

1046
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:34,120
Speaker 1: at all. Uh. And he sat there in the locker

1047
00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:37,360
Speaker 1: room yesterday and was just I used the word earlier.

1048
00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,879
Speaker 1: He's magnanimous. He's that guy with a big heart who's

1049
00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:42,920
Speaker 1: willing to take the time and explain what he means

1050
00:53:43,000 --> 00:53:46,280
Speaker 1: and talk to people. It's important to him when football

1051
00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:49,719
Speaker 1: is done. Um, you might want to write this one down.

1052
00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:51,160
Speaker 1: This is a great quote. It was given to me

1053
00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:53,680
Speaker 1: by Vick Catchman, who longtime football fans. No. And it's

1054
00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:57,960
Speaker 1: the memories that make you rich. And it's it's Calais Campbell.

1055
00:53:57,960 --> 00:54:00,440
Speaker 1: The money is there, but money comes and goes. But

1056
00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:03,280
Speaker 1: the relationships that you build with players and coaches and media,

1057
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:07,640
Speaker 1: uh and fans. And Calais has a huge contract, but

1058
00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:10,839
Speaker 1: he is rich in personal relationships because there's no one

1059
00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:12,360
Speaker 1: in that locker room that doesn't want to hear what

1060
00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:16,040
Speaker 1: he has to say that doesn't enjoy a conversation absolutely. Now,

1061
00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:18,520
Speaker 1: this next one was a conversation that I had with

1062
00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:21,320
Speaker 1: Unique and gok way Um and it was real simple.

1063
00:54:21,400 --> 00:54:23,400
Speaker 1: I said, so, what's the rest of the season about

1064
00:54:23,680 --> 00:54:27,640
Speaker 1: for you? My goal is to ruin other teams. Uh,

1065
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:29,399
Speaker 1: that's trying to get to the playoffs, and I want

1066
00:54:29,440 --> 00:54:30,759
Speaker 1: us to win the rest of these games, and that's

1067
00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:33,600
Speaker 1: my goal. Went out and try to mess up anybody

1068
00:54:33,640 --> 00:54:36,320
Speaker 1: has to playoff chances. He's the Quittin Nelson of the

1069
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:40,440
Speaker 1: Jaguars locker room, a great player who plays, you know,

1070
00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:43,759
Speaker 1: like he's got a mouthful of nails, you know, I mean,

1071
00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:47,000
Speaker 1: he's He's a good guy and he is a person

1072
00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:48,799
Speaker 1: that I enjoy talking to, but there's times where I

1073
00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:51,760
Speaker 1: don't even want to go into it. He is always wound.

1074
00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:55,120
Speaker 1: So it's funny we David Canis and I every week

1075
00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:57,080
Speaker 1: go into the locker room play this game Jaguars a

1076
00:54:57,200 --> 00:54:59,440
Speaker 1: fake Q trivia, and Unique and I always have had

1077
00:54:59,440 --> 00:55:01,080
Speaker 1: a good relations ship. He's always been willing to talk

1078
00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:02,600
Speaker 1: to me, but every time I go ask him to

1079
00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:04,919
Speaker 1: play trivia, goes Ashland. I'm not the type of guy.

1080
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:06,799
Speaker 1: I'm like, come on, you equally, let's play this week

1081
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:08,880
Speaker 1: like you'll like ido. I will never play trivia. You

1082
00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:11,160
Speaker 1: have a football question, come to me. I'm not trivia

1083
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:14,719
Speaker 1: type of guy. No fun, well, serious, all football. But

1084
00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:18,960
Speaker 1: you're gonna appreciate the fact that he tells you. He explains,

1085
00:55:19,320 --> 00:55:20,800
Speaker 1: where are some people who just turn their back on you,

1086
00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:22,759
Speaker 1: ignore you? Not right, No, not him. He'll give you

1087
00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:25,280
Speaker 1: a reason, but there's no fun allowed in football season

1088
00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:29,120
Speaker 1: for him. This next byte is one um that stands

1089
00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:32,839
Speaker 1: out for candor, and it stands out for character. We'll

1090
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:35,879
Speaker 1: let it play and you'll understand for yourself. I put

1091
00:55:35,920 --> 00:55:39,040
Speaker 1: myself in this, you know, in this position, and um,

1092
00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:40,680
Speaker 1: you know I didn't didn't play good enough, you know,

1093
00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:43,040
Speaker 1: didn't win football games. I couldn't find a way to

1094
00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:44,919
Speaker 1: get it done. And you know, when that happens, it's

1095
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:47,800
Speaker 1: it's a business and everybody understands that. And um, you know,

1096
00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:50,239
Speaker 1: I don't think there's anything personal involved, but it's you know,

1097
00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:51,680
Speaker 1: as a quarterback, I think you got one job and

1098
00:55:51,719 --> 00:55:53,120
Speaker 1: that's to won a football game. And if you don't

1099
00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:55,759
Speaker 1: do that, your time's probably limited. So say what you

1100
00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:57,759
Speaker 1: want about him as a quarterback and how you're ready

1101
00:55:57,760 --> 00:56:00,640
Speaker 1: for something else. But you cannot argue with the fact

1102
00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:04,200
Speaker 1: that it takes a high character individual who the week

1103
00:56:04,320 --> 00:56:07,239
Speaker 1: that he's been benched at his friend, the coordinator has

1104
00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:11,080
Speaker 1: been fired, and the expectations of a Super Bowl run

1105
00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:14,560
Speaker 1: have been shattered, that he would stand there probably knowing

1106
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:16,480
Speaker 1: what we all do, which is that it's likely his

1107
00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:19,160
Speaker 1: time that Jacksonville has done and answer the questions, no

1108
00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:22,000
Speaker 1: matter what the questions were. Hats off to you, Blake.

1109
00:56:22,360 --> 00:56:26,560
Speaker 1: More players need to be like you, a true professional

1110
00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:28,759
Speaker 1: and stand there and answer the questions, yeah, and say

1111
00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:31,880
Speaker 1: it's on him, like everything on him. Yeah he did. Okay,

1112
00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:34,360
Speaker 1: all right, Now let's go to the similarities of Cody

1113
00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:39,000
Speaker 1: Kessler in Cleveland and now here in Jacksonville. Yeah, I

1114
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:42,200
Speaker 1: mean in Cleveland obviously, um, you know all back but

1115
00:56:42,360 --> 00:56:45,480
Speaker 1: you know, it wasn't a great situation there, um and

1116
00:56:45,480 --> 00:56:47,000
Speaker 1: and there was just a lot of adversity, a lot

1117
00:56:47,040 --> 00:56:48,799
Speaker 1: of tough things, and it was kind of same here

1118
00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:50,640
Speaker 1: right now, you know, three and eight and and you know,

1119
00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:52,840
Speaker 1: a lot of frustration. But at the same time, you know,

1120
00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:54,560
Speaker 1: I've always believed it's just you know, it's just a week.

1121
00:56:54,560 --> 00:56:57,399
Speaker 1: It's a new opportunity, and and you know, getting these

1122
00:56:57,400 --> 00:56:59,160
Speaker 1: guys that really played for me. It's something that you know,

1123
00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:01,480
Speaker 1: I really want to prove this week, and Sean ready

1124
00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:03,120
Speaker 1: to go, and I don't really care about the record.

1125
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:06,600
Speaker 1: There's a opportunity. It's gonna So I go back to

1126
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:10,000
Speaker 1: our conversation with him in the hotel suite in Minneapolis

1127
00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:12,560
Speaker 1: before the Vikings camp when he came in and did

1128
00:57:12,560 --> 00:57:15,560
Speaker 1: the production meeting with the preseason crew. UM, and he

1129
00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:20,200
Speaker 1: talked about how Cleveland was so frustrating because last year

1130
00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:24,480
Speaker 1: as Deshauan Kaiser was struggling and they were losing and

1131
00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:27,120
Speaker 1: it was getting tough. He kept thinking, why am I

1132
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:29,880
Speaker 1: not getting a chance. It's not as if Kaiser is

1133
00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:35,520
Speaker 1: the established veteran quarterback or even established starter or right.

1134
00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:38,200
Speaker 1: And I saw that same look in his eye right

1135
00:57:38,200 --> 00:57:40,520
Speaker 1: there as he answered that question when we asked him

1136
00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:42,600
Speaker 1: back in August. So I'm excited to see him play.

1137
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:44,320
Speaker 1: Even though there will be no Leonard for net and

1138
00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:46,440
Speaker 1: he won't have a complete offensive line, it doesn't have

1139
00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:48,520
Speaker 1: the tight end that we thought was going to change

1140
00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:51,080
Speaker 1: the middle of the field for this team this year. Um,

1141
00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:52,840
Speaker 1: It'll be fun to watch him play. I'm interested to

1142
00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:55,560
Speaker 1: see how he takes advantage of the opportunity if he does. Yeah,

1143
00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:58,080
Speaker 1: absolutely all right, Well that'll do it for our show today.
